Join Michelle as she takes you through a full Asian Fusion-style groom on Rocket, her charming Bichon comp dog. This tutorial blends practical salon-friendly techniques with show ring polish, showing how to sculpt clean lines, balanced flares, and that irresistible teddy bear expression. You’ll see how Michelle works with Rocket’s quirks and coat to create a stylish, flattering finish that enhances his features while keeping the look soft and playful. It’s an inspiring mix of precision, creativity, and good fun - perfect for anyone wanting to bring more flair and finesse to their Asian Fusion grooms.

In this Tutorial, You will learn:

  • Shape an Asian Fusion outline with a short, even body, flared legs, and a rounded teddy-style head.
  • Work safely with extension combs and #30 blade, with options for different coat textures and sensitivities.
  • Balance and disguise structural quirks through clipper work and styling adjustments.
  • Master Bedlington-inspired ears, including safe clipper angles and why they suit dogs prone to ear irritation.
  • Trim and shape the face for clear eyes, soft lips, and an expressive, rounded finish.
  • Blend the head, crest, and body smoothly to create flow and proportion.
  • Create neat bevelled feet and flared legs that hold their shape without extra bulk.
  • Refine outlines using curved scissors, straights, and thinners for a polished, balanced result.
  • Apply Michelle’s practical finishing touches from tidy prep to presentation-ready results.
